CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Teens begin to think more about moral, philosophical, ethical, social, and political issues that require theoretical and abstract reasoning. They begin to use deductive logic, or reasoning from a general principle to specific information.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the context of cognitive development, the ability of deductive reasoning starts with the concrete operational stage (labeled by Jean Piaget) at around the age of 6 or 7 years.

Detailed explanation-3: -At the age of 11 or 12, children reach what famed psychologist Jean Piaget called the formal operational stage. It’s the final stage in the child’s development. During this stage, children start to think abstractly and even apply those ideas to problem-solving. They also learn a process called deductive reasoning.

Detailed explanation-4: -Around the age of seven, give or take a year, children enter a developmental phase known as the age of reason.

Detailed explanation-5: -Formal Operational Stage Adolescents who reach this fourth stage of intellectual development–usually at age 11-plus–are able to use symbols related to abstract concepts, such as algebra and science. They can think about things in systematic ways, come up with theories, and consider possibilities.
